AnnualOcimum basilicum. Lime basil is a vibrant, aromatic herb known for its bright green leaves and distinct citrusy fragrance and flavor. This unique variety of basil adds a refreshing twist to traditional basil, making it perfect for enhancing the taste of salads, seafood, salsas, and cocktails. It pairs well with lemon basil for a full, zesty flavor. Lime basil is a delightful addition to any herb garden, offering both culinary and ornamental value.
I grew lime basil for the first time in 2024 and absolutely loved it! I used with fruit, steeped it to make coconut lime basil ice cream (phenomenal!), dried it for tea, and used it for flavored water. It is versatile, easy to grow and very flavorful.
Love this basil. So good in cucumber salad.
There was plenty of seeds in the packet, I have enough left for many many more plantings to come.
I've been growing this variety for years and love pairing it with Sun Gold tomatoes. Few leaves of lime basil with one tomato, pure bliss.
I love the smell and taste of this variety of basil. I add it to water, I add it to chicken and I add it to fresh flower bouquets!
very unique scent and flavor

I grew this pepper plant in a 20 gallon pot and it did very well. It produced dozens of small peppers that were spicy—hotter than your standard jalapeno. I put about 3 of these in my salsa to spice it up along with 5-7 whole jalapeños (I roast them which takes out a portion of the yea). This little plant produced so many peppers that I froze a gallon bag of them to use in recipes throughout the year.
I am loving this squash! It grows so long and has beautiful leaves. I grow it upward and loves it! I have harvested at least 3-4 on one plant already. The remainder of the blooms are male, and I am not sure if I will have any more. :( I have, however, planted more in the mean time hoping I will harvest as many as this one. I will definately grow more!. Thank you!
All is well and great service...
So far, everything we have purchased has had an almost 100% germination rate. And what sprouts has grown quickly and strongly. We are now big fans of MIgardener seeds!
I’ve had issues trying to germinate seeds bought from big box stores. Come to find out they are old and a waste of money. MI Gardener seeds are fresh, germinate quickly and stay good for years. My Pablo lettuce is still growing and I look forward to harvesting and eating it!
